A Spanish judge has ruled Barcelona must submit the contracts that brought Brazilian star Neymar to the club in May to ascertain if president Sandro Rosell has a case to answer for misappropriation of funds.
Barcelona has publicly stated the money from Neymar's signing was distributed among four companies at a total cost of 57.1 million euros ($78.6 million).
However, the club has claimed a confidentiality clause in the contract prevents it from saying how much each of the parties received of the overall fee.
